Throwback Thursday: Reflections on the 2013 Blogging While Brown Conference + Sometimes It’s Just about Who Will Be the Last One Standing

Today, I didn’t feel like getting out of bed. The 5am rule be darned. I kept on pressing snooze. The weight of all I had to do, plans for the future, and life stresses kept me clinging to my pillow, snuggled under the covers, putting my phone on vibrate and muting notifications. The night before, I had been meandering on Youtube, and happened upon this video from 2013 from the Blogging while Brown Conference. Angel Laws of Concrete Loop, Necole…

Roll Call: Meditation Tips?

So I’ve been hearing good stuff about meditation for years. Like the 5am rule, loads of successful people swear by meditation, including Russell Simmons, Rick Rubin, Kobe Bryant, Arianna Huffington, and even Oprah, who is rumored to have a meditation room in her house. This morning I successfully woke up at 5am (pats self on back), but instead of hit the park for a run or brisk walk, I decided to kick the day off with meditation. I found a…

The Bomb Life 101: If You Want More, You Have to Do More

A few weeks ago, a Fashion Bomb staffer called me in tears, dismayed at how life had turned out post college. She revealed that she was underemployed, looking for opportunities, but not making any headway. I know how it is, so told her that Fashion Bomb Daily was a great platform and she can use it to showcase her talent and make a little extra money. About a week later, I asked the same staffer if she could take on…

Puff Daddy’s New Cîroc Campaign: Everything I’m Living Now, I Dreamt About It

Now, I don’t really talk about my inspirations much (or post branded content on this site), but this Cîroc campaign spoke to me! In it, Puff Daddy says, “Everything I’m living now, I dreamt about it. I knew that I had to work hard to get it and I wanted it. I got my first job when I was 12. I didn’t settle at one paper route, I got 4 paper routes. My mother had four jobs. I [saw] her…

Ask Claire: How Can I Apply for a Job at a Magazine Without Contact Information?

Hey! I’m cranking out this Ask Claire super fast, as I’m running to an appointment! I wish I could tell you what it was, but stay tuned for a Fashion Bomb product this holiday season. At any rate, let’s quickly get to today’s reader query: Mino asks, “I am a thirtysomething post-graduate student who is seeking to break into blogging. My interests are style and fashion, social politics and theology, and I know this is an odd combination, and so…

Throwback Thursday: So I Already Wrote a Book; My Unpublished Tome and The Importance of Visualization Wearing J Bailey and Dior

So, as you know, I am writing a book! And I have a coach who is helping me along the way. I’ll reveal his name later (maybe when I’m halfway or 100% done). I finally sat down this morning to get started on Chapter 1, which is tentatively titled, “Yes, I went to Harvard.” And as I lifted my fingers to write, I remembered that I had started to write a book in 2009. In 2009, I was still living…
